Mama, We’re All RINOs Now

The wicked irony here is that the “true conservatives” (or TCs) who are busily kicking every flawed Republican to the curb will tell you in a heartbeat that they are “conservatives first, Republicans second” – which means, if we’re being logical, that they, the “true conservatives,” are actually the “true RINOs.”

Not only that, but those who would rather see Hillary or Obama than McCain (who they are much closer to ideologically) are really talking about sacrificing an impure conservative so as not to sully the conservative nature of the Republican party. That is, they’re putting party ahead of principle, although they probably don’t even realize it.
